368 Dr. A. G. Butler on new Pierine Butterflies. 
3. Catasticta vulnerata, sp. n. 
Allied to C. uricachee, but easily distinguished by the fact 
that on the upper surface the basal area of the primaries as 
well as of the secondaries is suffused with crimson, the discal 
white spots narrower, the crimson on the secondaries more 
restricted and greyer, the spots of the discal series small, 
paler red, and diffused, the marginal internervular spots 
whitish. On the under surface the markings are more sharply 
defined, the yellow markings brighter, the grey discal belt 
across the secondaries with nearly straight inner edge, and 
therefore broader, the white and yellow belt bounding it 
internally consequently narrower; the marginal spots broader, 
slightly less angular. 
Iixpanse of wings 58-61 millim. 
Keuador (Buckley). Three males. 
4. Catasticta tricolor, sp. n. 
Also allied to C. urtcechece, but with all the spots on the 
upper surface of the primaries bright lemon-yellow; the 
scarlet markings on the secondaries less brilliant in colour, 
the patch towards the base more restricted, the spot within 
the end of the cell diffused inwardly and those across the 
disk much elongated ; a marginal series of yellow spots. On 
the under surface the white and yellow markings are so much 
reduced in size as to give this species a decidedly greyer 
aspect, in which respect it somewhat approaches C. evnerea ; 
it, however, appears to differ from all its allies in having the 
base of the abdominal fold of the secondaries bordered with 
scarlet. 
Expanse of wings 63 millim. 
Ecuador. One fine male example. 
In the Hewitson collection under the name of C. sisamnus 
are two males of what I believe to be a very distinct species 
allied to both C. hegemon and C. fliza. Unfortunately the 
habitat of the species has not been preserved, and as this 
group is somewhat more variable than others in the genus 
and the species more difficult to describe so as to be easily 
recognizable, I prefer to leave it unnamed until specimens 
come to hand with information as to habitat. 
The following species was confounded with his C. anaittis 
by Hewitson :— 
5. Catasticta sordida, sp. n. 
g. Above with the general colouring of C. anaztes, but
